Greetings! I have a 1-7245 available, free to a good home. My father bought it used in 1978, and it’s been with us ever since. It ran when I parked it ~3y ago, but it hasn’t moved since then because the ignition switch was failing. We bought a replacement switch, but when I went to install it yesterday I found the gas tank leaking. We don’t have much use for the old girl any more, and would rather pass it on to someone else. You could probably get her rolling again with a replacement bulkhead fitting (~$20) for the tank. Or a newish tank (~$???) from the spare parts forum.
The Good:
- Ran when parked
- Has the 42” Deck (5-1422)
- Has the Snowblower attachment (6-6211), also with wheel weights
- Has original owner’s manual (heavily annotated) for the tractor and the Kohler engine
- Kohler has been rebuilt
- It’s free!
- Needs starter switch installed. We have a switch, it’s sitting on the seat in the tractor pic.
- Needs gas tank repaired or replaced
- Surface rust, but it’s just cosmetic.
With minimal effort it would probably run again, we just don’t have a good use for the tractor any more. I’d rather give it away. If you want more pics, or have questions, just ask.
